Geodesic has launched the latest version 4.0 of its product Mundu IM that allows users to cross-conference friends, colleagues and family across AIM, MSN, Yahoo IM, ICQ, Google Talk and Jabber services through a single chat window on Palm and Windows Mobile Smartphone platforms.
Mundu users can also share their photos and videos taken from their camera phones with their contacts across other IM services. They can also send files and music on their mobile device to friends and colleagues and receive email notifications for their Yahoo!, MSN and Google accounts on the move. Users do not have to pay per message.
Mundu IM V4 supports Palm OS and Windows Mobile Smartphone platforms and will soon support Windows Mobile Pocket PC and Symbian Series 60 platforms.
“As Internet enabled smart phones emerge to be vital tools for today’s consumer, instant messaging (IM) on mobile devices is becoming a standard mode of communication for consumers and professionals alike,” said Kiran Kulkarni, Managing Director of Geodesic. “Mundu recognizes that users are spread across different IM services and aims to unite them with a single interface across services, and mobile devices.”
Users can download a free 5 day Mundu IM trial version from here .
During the initial promotion period Mundu IM V4 can be purchased for a one-time standard charge of US $11.00. This does mean that the cost of Mundu IM V4 for the Indian user will change with the value of the dollar.
Born with the sole aim of correcting people, Sharon took to copy-editing at an early age. In the olden days her methods of correction were rather unorthodox. Don't believe us? Ask the intern who lost two of his er.... Oh ok, I guess we don't talk about that. Now after she got a kid, things have relatively mellowed down. Besides handling the plethora of content that comes out of Tech2, Sharon also handles our sister site, CompareIndia where you can well compare prices of pretty much every electronic item under the sun and CHIP magazine as well, if things weren't heavy enough. She handles a team, all of who seem real happy as long as they're not chained to their desks.
